Meet Ian

Q. What is your career history?

A. Well, I think that I embody what is possible in a career at Assured Futures. I started at a basic adviser level when I was just 18 and I've worked up through the ranks, within our sister company A-Plan and at Assured Futures. I don't have a degree or even A-Level's but through being a good all-rounder and sheer hard work I've got to this position. 

Q. What makes you proud?

A. PROUD is an anagram made from the first letter of our companies values Positive, Rewarding, Open, Understanding and Dedicated. Firstly I am proud of what we do. Insurance is crucially important, to lives, to society, to allow businesses to grow and social mobility to exist. Our life and health products truly deliver and protect families when the chips are down, when terrible things happen to loved ones. We know the value of our products. But even more so I am proud of how we 'do' insurance. We have the widest panel of insurers, we have the best prices and we have staff dedicated to delivering the right customer outcomes. 

Q. What does the future hold for Assured Futures?

A. Whatever we make of it! A company is only as good as its people, and if we continue to pull together and believe in what we do, will will continue the year on year growth we have achieved over the last 10 years.

Meet The Boss

What type of people enjoy working at Assured Futures?

This is a great place to work for anyone who enjoys helping other people. What we offer is priceless, giving our clients advice and policies that give them peace of mind: that if they or their loved ones lose their life, health or income, then the one thing they don’t have to worry about is money. My own career spans the Army, the RAC, Aviva and Lloyd’s of London and has always been about helping people: whether peacekeeping, making sure they’re rescued at the side of the road, or well covered if the worst happens. All you need to succeed is that desire to help.

What’s special about Assured Futures?

Our ethos is absolutely centered around doing the right thing, and ensuring we always provide the best possible advice and cover for our clients, no matter what. Trust is hard won, and easily lost and by doing the right thing for each and every client we earn their trust. That means we’re always looking to ensure we have the right products available for them, and invest in our own training to ensure our advice is always spot on. Doing the right thing extends to our own team too and we work hard to support the great team we have.

What does the future hold for Assured Futures?

Really, what we’re selling is peace of mind: policies that cover what we all hope will never happen. Those risks will never go away, and most people need our help to understand the risks they have. So we’re on a mission to make sure that as many people as possible know how to get that reassurance, which means we’re always growing and expanding into new areas. So if you like a challenge in a growing business, in a fast paced environment where you’re helping others and developing yourself, this is an amazing place to work.
